    Chapter 274


    “Ouch…”


    “Sir, it hurts


    The girl’s voice trembled slightly as she gritted her teeth in endurance, her face pale as a sheet. She


    looked like she was on the verge of breaking down.


    Theo paused his eyebrows furrowed


    He hadn’t even touched her, why was she crying out in pain?


    From the get go, Theo had no intention of doing anything to her. He was just trying to scare her a bit


    because she was being such a pain in the neck!


    “Where does it hurt?”


    Ellinor scrunched her face in difort, her eyshes quivering. Her eyes were red and teary. “My


    hand it hurts…”


    Hand?


    Theo looked up, his gaze falling on her two small hands. His pupils dted in shock.


    He first released her hands before bringing them up to examine them….


    Ellinor’s hands were red and swollen at this point, looking like two boiled pig’s trotters!


    His brows knitted in concern, and he asked in a deep voice. “What happened? What did you do?”


    Ellinor weakly shook her head, her voice barely a whisper, “I don’t know I didn’t… do anything…


    Her hands felt like they were being scorched, the pain was unbearable. It was as if they were being


    fried in a pan of hot oil, causing her to break out in a cold sweat


    Her breathing becamebored, her throat felt like it was stuffed with cotton and utterly ufortable.


    Just before she closed her eyes, she heard Theo calling her name.


    He sounded distressed?

    “Ellinor! Ellinor! Ellinor…”


    The next second, Theo was rushing out of the bathroom with a passed–out Ellinor in his arms.


    After Ellinor woke up at the hospital, she only saw the sterile white hospital ceiling and the IV drip


    beside her bed. Her throat was dry and sore. She tried to speak but was unsessful.


    She wanted to reach for the water on the table, only to find that both her hands were tightly wrapped in


    bandages. They looked like Doraemon’s hands, round and fingerless, unable to grip anything


    Helplessly, shey on the hospital bed, looking around


    The ward was eerily quiet, with her being the only patient….


    It was like that time when she was a child. Her mother had taken her to the hospital and then said she


    was going to buy some wonton soup, asking her to wait patiently in the ward


    She watched the fluid in the IV drip slowly trickle away, but her mother never returned.


    She didn’t like hospitals.


    Just as she was feeling down, she suddenly heard a cheerful voice…


    “You’re awake! That’s great!”


    Upon hearing the voice, Ellinor saw Belinda Wesleying in


    Belinda quickly walked over to the bed, looking at her with concern, “I just went to the bathroom. Why


    are your eyes red?”


    Ellinor managed a weak smile, her voice hoarse, “It’s nothing I just slept too much.”


    Belinda nodded, “Are you feeling better now? Do you want me to call the doctor to check on you


    again?”


    Ellinor shook her head. “There’s no need. Can you help me sit up and get me some water? My throat is


    parched.”


    Belinda immediately did as she asked, carefully helping her sit up and cing a pillow behind her back.


    Then, she picked up a cup of water, inserted a straw, and helped her drink.


    Ellinor intended to take the cup herself, but her hands were too weak to lift it. She had no choice but to


    let Belinda help her, leaning her head over to drink from the straw.
